Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a secured fusion between a container and a lid easily by melting the upper end surface of the container and the lower surface of the lid which has no projections by use of a hot plate, and removing the hot plate, being followed by pressing and fusing the upper end surface of the container and the lower surface of the lid together. CONSTITUTION:After cells are connected by inserting plate groups 10 into a container 1, a hot plate 7 having ribs 8 is interposed between the upper end surface of the container 1 and the lower surface of a lid 4 so as to make them to be molten. Next, the plate 7 is removed, and the container 1 and the lid 4 are pressed upon one another so as to make fusing parts 6. By the means mentioned above, since fused parts of the lower surface of the flat lid 4 are molten into groove-like form by the ribs 8 of the plate 7, the above fusion can be securely performed even when partition walls 2 and side walls 3 of the container 1 have warps after the plate groups 10 are inserted into the container 1. Besides, the lid 4 can be made to have a simple plate-like shape.

Next, to explain the manufacturing method of the illustrated storage battery of the present invention, first, the electrode plate group 10 is composed by a conventional method, and this is placed in the battery case 1.
After inserting the battery case 1 into the battery case 1 and connecting the cells, the upper end surface of the battery case 1 and the lower lid surface 5 are melted with a hot plate 7 interposed as shown in FIG. At this time, the welded portion of the lower lid surface 5, which was flat as shown in FIG. 4, is melted into a groove shape by the ribs 8 of the hot plate 7.

As described above, the present invention thermally welds the upper end surface of the battery case 1 and the lower lid surface 5 from which the part to be welded does not protrude. Even if the bottom surface 5 of the lid is warped, the bottom surface 5 of the lid is melted corresponding to the top surface of the battery case 1.
By setting the width of the hot plate rib 8 to an appropriate size so that the size of Ex-Q during melting is commensurate with the size of Ex-Q of the battery case partition wall, etc., the battery case 1 and the lid 4 can be securely connected. Moreover, it can be easily welded. Moreover, the lower surface 5 of the lid has a protrusion B like the conventional one.
Since the lid 4 is not provided at all, the lid 4 has a substantially flat and simple shape, so there is no sinkage due to uneven wall thickness, and the appearance is good, and the cost of the lid 4 is lower than that of conventional products. It has the following advantages.
